+Subject: [PATCH] bonding: require speed/duplex only for 802.3ad, alb and tlb
+
+The patch c4adfc822bf5 ("bonding: make speed, duplex setting consistent
+with link state") puts the link state to down if
+bond_update_speed_duplex() cannot retrieve speed and duplex settings.
+Assumably the patch was written with 802.3ad mode in mind which relies
+on link speed/duplex settings. For other modes like active-backup these
+settings are not required. Thus, only for these other modes, this patch
+reintroduces support for slaves that do not support reporting speed or
+duplex such as wireless devices. This fixes the regression reported in
+bug 196547 (https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=196547).
